Hey all, I'm new here so if this doesn't belong in this forum then let me know and I can move it. I just recently started practicing DRT climbing in preparation for this fall, and I really enjoy this method. However, I've noticed that my rope seems to twist up on itself almost the same way that it would if I were to use a single munter hitch to rappel. Is this normal for this method, or has anyone else seen this issue before? The rope I'm currently using is Sterling Oplux 8mm. I use a self tending blake's hitch and I know I'm tying it correctly. I wonder if it is the type of rope I am using? I am also curious as to what types of rope everyone is using for this method, and if they could provide their opinion on its performance. TIA for any input.
